Court Beaumont owns one of the hottest night spots in Atlanta and spends every evening working behind the bar. But Friday night is date night and the one night of the week that Court devotes to pleasing a woman. His reputation for leaving his dates happy and satisfied guarantees he'll have his share of ladies to choose from. On this Friday night, Court is looking for someone a little different. Will this night be more of the same or will Court finally meet his match?
My review contains spoilers and they're mostly my thoughts as I went with the book...
When I finished Friday Nights, the 1st thing that came to my mind was I wanted more. I wanted the continuation of the story and to see something deeper developing between Lacey and Court. The ending felt totally incomplete and I didn’t like the feeling.
Court owns the hottest nightclub the area. He’s also a womanizer; new woman each Friday night. Friday nights are reserved for his dates, where he enjoys having sex and giving the pleasure back to his lovers. It seems Court’s family members are into ménage; his twin brothers are certainly into it, though I don’t think they are into a longstanding relationship. Their mother is also into the same relationship. Even though Court respects their decisions, he is not into this lifestyle because he doesn’t like to share.
It seems like the wild lifestyle (and reputation) that he enjoys so much is sort of wearing off. Today he’s looking for a new someone, not his usual empty headed bimbos. Hmm, all the Beaumont brothers enjoy maintaining their ‘reputation’ but Court makes sure that he never ends up accidentally dating any woman Cam and Caleb has already shagged. Anyway, as he looks into the crowded bar, his eyes zooms in on Lacey. The twins warn him that she’s too much work for a night since she just won’t give in like any other woman. I don’t know why they think this way because Lacey didn’t really voice any objection at all, even though she tried to act as ‘hard to get’ in the beginning. I mean, if you mean it, show it... don’t act like you do. It’s not fun IMO.
Lacey’s date just left her because she refused to sleep with him. But she’s been daydreaming about Court for a longtime, so when he asks she jumps to the chance. Hmm, again, why did her date left her? :/
Even though I generally don’t like casual sex and womanizer heroes that much, I liked this little story. I’ve already mentioned that I was interested to see more of Lacey and Court’s relationship because in the end, it was indicated that Court felt something different about their night together and I believed it. He was nice and thoughtful throughout. I don’t know what Lacey felt though. Well, if I feel there’s no indication of a future together for the H and h, the story just doesn’t work for me. It’s just my thing. 3.75 stars because I do like CW’s writing. I found Friday Nights to be a good read and would definitely look forward for more of Ms. Wilder’s stories. I hope she’d write some full-length erotica in the future.
This copy of Friday Nights was provided to me by the author herself but there was NO obligation that I do a review. Still, I’d like to thank her for it.

Court and his twin brothers are owners of a bar where they all seem to have a pick of the women there, the only difference between the brothers is that Court only plays on Friday Nights and his brothers don't seem to care what day they play or what time they come in to work.
On this particular Friday night, Court seems to be growing tired to the usual plastic, immature and ditzy women that he usually goes home with and decides that he needs something more interesting, then he sees Lacey. She isn't like the other women in the bar. She appears to be professional and by the way her date just ran out of the bar, Court can see that she is a woman that knows what she wants and isn't use to settling for anything less.
After Lacey shoots down Court's advances, he see's this as a challenge and decides to pull out all the stops to get her into bed. Court knows that sleeping with a woman like Lacey may not just be a one time thing and he has to decide if she is worth the risk!
Court runs a bar and every Friday is date night where he finds a woman to take home and have sex with. It's not until he meets Lacey that he realizes maybe having just one woman would be okay.
